Come get your Rock-Paper-Scissors mod!
Great smashing, cutting and wrapping action for all!

Comes with 3 shipsets including the generic one!

PS:
If someone with AI experience could browse through and clean up some of the warnings, that would be great. (They only appear when loading/creating a game, once you clear them, the game runs fine)

Done. Copied the AI file over and removed all the AI_Research entries. Actually USING an AI won't work, so don't bother and be sure to turn off random AIs.

o.... k... ?

Didn't know this was "long-awaited", but it looks interesting.

So is this for a one-night TCP/IP game? It seems silly to do PBW with 24 hour turns or something. Just building ships and ... no, thats it, just building ships. Putting them into fleets, designing fleet and ship strategies, and giving them orders.

So someone wanna try it?

Sj this is a classic

The combat strategies don't need too much detail either

The strategy will be all in deciding which ships to build and where to move them each turn. Getting the scissors to the paper, while avoiding the rocks.

The sizes for the Scissors-component and the Paper component are switched (that or the SHIP sizes are switched).

You can create a size-50 Paper ship with a size 48 component, but you can't create a size 48 Scissors ship with a size 50 component.

That is now fixed right up.
I've set them to 50kt each, and the hull ability restrictions are what will force the components to match the hulls.

I never saw this. I wonder where I was in late march.
This is great!

It is long awaited because SJ and I talked about it hm, well, long ago.
